Hello Bernhard,

We are developing the software using Apple's Project Builder in Cocoa 
(objective-c based), as a commercial, closed-source project.

At this time, while we do not have a schedule, we hope to start beta 
testing within a months time.

I personally have mixed feelings about the open-source versus closed 
source issue. Although we will not contribute code to the Grass 
community in this instance, we will continue (and hopefully increase) 
monetary donations to the Grass project.


Best regards,
